Chapter 680 - I want to fly up to the sky, as high as the sun!
Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator said, “Was that four-headed snake just now the same creature that Senior Xian Gong warned us about via secret sound transmission?”
“There is no mistaking it, I guess. A snake-shaped demon of the Sixth Stage hailing from the Netherworld Realm… it perfectly fits Scholar Xian Gong’s description,” Fairy Lychee replied. Then, she raised her phone and adjusted the angle, taking several selfies together with the four-headed snake that was getting more and more distant in the sky.
Then, she selected the best ones and sent them to the Nine Provinces Number One Group and published them on her profile.
Absolutely shocking! A four-headed snake demon suddenly arrived at the filming location and kidnapped ‘little friend Seven Dao Names’ and ‘Venerable White’, taking them as hostages. At this time, the four-headed snake has already fled the scene with the hostages. If you wish to know what happens next, read the next chapter!
Attached to the post were Fairy Lychee’s beautiful pictures, as well as the picture of the four-headed snake flying in the sky.
In the pictures, the demonic snake was using its tail and one of its four necks to hold Venerable White and Song Shuhang.
Fairy Lychee’s post was quickly shared and spread everywhere.
After appreciating the new pictures of the beautiful Fairy Lychee, the various cultivators in her friend list started to worry about the safety of the four-headed snake. It unexpectedly kidnapped ‘Venerable White’ and ran away? After hearing this news, one couldn’t help but worry about the four-headed snake. It was unknown how many seconds it would be able to live on…
❄️❄️❄️
True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple said, “What should we do? That demonic snake ran away after grabbing Venerable White and Fellow Daoist Song Shuhang. I’m not sure if I should consider that snake someone with a good or bad eye since the one it kidnapped was Venerable White…”
Young Master Phoenix Slayer replied, “Maybe we should catch up to them and take a look?”
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator held his chin with a strange expression on his face and said, “At first, I thought that the demonic snake had rushed over to fight against us… but I didn’t expect that it would run away after kidnapping Venerable White and little friend Song Shuhang. We were too careless!”
Fairy Lychee put away her mobile phone with a smile and said, “However, I was somewhat relieved when I saw it make its move against Venerable White.”
True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple added, “Me too. With Venerable White there, we don’t need to about little friend Song Shuhang’s safety.”
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator said, “I just thought of something… is it possible that the four-headed snake just now didn’t know that we were shooting a movie? After all, the demons of the Netherworld haven’t stepped foot in the human world for the past several hundred years. Therefore, it’s not that strange if they don’t know about movies. Such being the case, is it possible that the snake decided to suddenly abduct Venerable White after seeing that he was ‘unconscious’ and lying on the ground?”
“…” Su Clan’s Sixteen.
Fairy Dongfang Six laughed and said, “Ahaha, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator’s guess seems correct!”
Fairy Lychee agreed, “Hmm, there is a big chance that this is exactly what happened.”
True Monarch Fallout also agreed, “Indeed, this might as well be the truth about the situation!”
Su Clan’s Sixteen said, “Anyway, Senior White was happily playing his role when he was suddenly abducted… given the time, he should be already fuming with anger, right?” Sixteen was somewhat worried about Song Shuhang. After all, the opposite party was a demon of the Netherworld of the Sixth Stage.
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator replied, “Indeed. Unless something unexpected happened, that demonic snake should have already been taken care of. When a certain monster snake offended Venerable White in the past, Senior White tied it to a disposable flying sword and shot it into space, firing it into the sun directly. Perhaps this four-headed snake demon will also end up in the sun in a while?”
Young Master Phoenix Slayer pushed his glasses up, refracting rays of wisdom, and said, ” I want to fly up to the sky, as high as the sun~ The world is waiting for me to change it~ 1 ”
Su Clan’s Sixteen said, “Senior Phoenix Slayer summarized the situation perfectly.”
Northern River’s Loose Cultivator added, “Did Fellow Daoist Phoenix Slayer just use the lyrics of a song to summarize the situation? Luckily, Dharma King Creation isn’t here at this time. Otherwise, he would have seized this opportunity to ‘sing’ the original song for us. Things would have gotten ugly had he started singing for real.”
“…” Young Master Phoenix Slayer.

Right at this time, Director Jacob suspended the shooting of the movie and turned around, looking at Great Master Swallow Cloud and Gao Moumou in puzzlement, then asking, “Was it you two that arranged for the appearance of this third type of wild beast, making it seize Ling Ye and Senior Brother Gao Sheng?”
Gao Moumou also had a confused expression on his face and shook his head.
Great Master Swallow Cloud said, “What happened earlier must have been an accident because we didn’t prepare anything of the sort. Mister Jacob, wait a moment. I’ll go check what’s the deal with this third ‘model’ of wild beast suddenly appearing. We can simply cut the last part out if necessary.”
Director Jacob nodded his head. As a director, he didn’t really like seeing unexpected things such as this taking place during the shooting of a movie.
However, this movie was somewhat different from the others, and he had mentally prepared himself when he’d accepted the task to shoot it.
In addition, if he had to be honest, he found the scene just now pretty good—this scene where this third type of wild beast suddenly appeared caught him by surprise.
This third type of wild beast had appeared out of nowhere and had taken the main character, Ling Ye, away after sending the monstrous fish and the snow wolves flying… this sudden turn of events wasn’t that bad. As for the part where Senior Brother Gao Sheng was abducted, they could simply edit it out. Now that this third type of wild beast had suddenly taken the main character, Ling Ye, away, there was no need for Senior Brother Gao Sheng to enter into action.
Director Jacob fell into deep thought as he was replaying the scene they had just shot.
❄️❄️❄️
Great Master Swallow Cloud ran in the direction of Northern River’s Loose Cultivator and the others to ask them what was the deal with that third type of ‘wild beast’ suddenly appearing.
In the meantime, True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon also rushed over at full speed, arriving next to Yu Jiaojiao, who was just sent flying. True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon wasn’t at the shooting site earlier. He was in Venerable White’s holiday mountain residence, quietly giving his several wives a call.
It wasn’t easy to manage so many wives, and True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon had to spend several hours each day to call his wives whenever he was away from home.
Just now, he was in the middle of a call when a fellow daoist notified him through a thousand mile sound transmitter that his beloved daughter, Yu Jiaojiao, had been attacked by a snake-shaped demon hailing from the Netherworld and sent flying. Therefore, True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon quickly hurried over.
“Jiaojiao, are you fine?” True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon asked with an aching heart.
Yu Jiaojiao smiled and said, “I’m fine, Father. I wasn’t injured. At the critical moment, I used a defensive water-type formation to protect myself, neutralizing the attack of that snake.”
Yu Jiaojiao was very skilled in the usage of defensive formations of the water attribute.
True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon checked the condition of his daughter, and calmed down after determining that she was indeed fine. Then, he clenched his teeth and said, “Where is that stupid snake that attacked you? It unexpectedly dared to attack my daughter with its tail; I’ll peel its skin off!”
Yu Jiaojiao said, “It ran away.”
“Ah?” True Monarch Tyrant Flood Dragon found it hard to believe. There were so many fellow daoists in the surroundings, and that demonic snake of the Sixth Stage still managed to get away?
“Yes, it grabbed Venerable White and Song Shuhang and ran away. Ahaha…” Yu Jiaojiao laughed after thinking about what happened a moment ago.
That four-headed snake demon used its tail to gently pick up the ‘unconscious’ Venerable White, then rudely coiled one of its necks around Song Shuhang, flying away. After the initial surprise, Yu Jiaojiao laughed so hard that tears almost fell from her eyes.
“Given the time, Senior White should have already killed that four-headed snake demon, right?” Yu Jiaojiao also added.
❄️❄️❄️
Just as everyone was wondering if Venerable White had ‘regained his senses’ already, and guessing which method he would use to put that four-headed snake demon to death…
In the sky, the four-headed snake demon was still grasping Song Shuhang and Venerable White as it rode the wind and flew high up.
Right at this time, Song Shuhang whispered to Venerable White via secret sound transmission, “Senior White, Senior White! The shooting of the scene is already over, and there is no need to keep pretending to be unconscious! Wake up quickly!”
And yet, Venerable White didn’t react, and maintained his ‘unconscious’ state.
Song Shuhang called him several times, but just as before, there was no reaction from Senior White.
Song Shuhang had a bad premonition in his heart.
After all, he had experienced a situation similar to this several times already…
“Lady Onion, can you move? If yes, can you look for a small ‘thousand mile sound transmitter’ that has the shape of a flute and blow it?” Song Shuhang whispered to Lady Onion, who was in the size-reducing purse, after pondering for a moment.
Lady Onion was reluctant to help Song Shuhang at first and thought of refusing him. After all, how many green onion sprouts had she lost because of Shuhang? But then, she remembered that Song Shuhang had passed onto her the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯…
It was a big favor, the favor of passing on a technique to someone.
Since she owed him such a big favor, coupled with the fact that she considered herself to be a good-hearted monster, she decided to help Song Shuhang this time. After all, she just had to blow this flute-shaped thousand mile sound transmitter and nothing more.
The flute was a small treasure that Song Shuhang received from True Monarch Yellow Mountain back when he was assigned the task to welcome Senior White, who was coming out of secluded meditation at that time. After blowing it, it was possible to get in touch with Venerable White even if the latter was closing up.
Later, Song Shuhang used the flute a few times to make sure of a certain matter.
Lady Onion rummaged through the size-reducing purse, and quickly found what she was looking for. She grabbed that thousand mile sound transmitter that had the shape of a flute and blew it.
In the next moment, Venerable White’s gentle voice was transmitted from the green flute. “Buzz… hello. This is the place where ‘White’ is closing up. I’ll be out in 0 days, 2 hours and 0 minutes; please wait patiently!”
The voice was very gentle, but it was somewhat stiff when it reported the amount of time left.
“…” Song Shuhang.
As expected, Senior White was closing up. This time, he decided to close up for two hours.
From the looks of it, Venerable White must have gotten a sudden inspiration while he was playing his role and got ‘knocked out’ by those wild beasts. Then, he decided to conveniently close up for a couple of hours since he was already lying on the ground and was supposed to play dead.
Given Venerable White’s disposition, this was totally within his capabilities!
In addition, closing up for just two hours wouldn’t affect the shooting of the movie.
According to the script of the movie, the following scene was the marriage between Senior Sister Murong Hua and Thrice Reckless Mad Saber— ugh, the marriage between Senior Sister Murong Hua and Feng Chuanzi, as well as the scene where the main character, Ling Ye, would receive medical treatment. As such, Venerable White just had to play dead and do nothing else.
Since he had nothing to worry about, Senior White decided to close up.
Such being the case, Venerable White wasn’t going to ‘wake up’ unless the time was finally up or someone directed their killing intent at him.
Back then, when Senior White had turned into a stone statue, he was first dug out from the place where he was closing up by a member of the Penniless Thief Sect, and then buried again underground. Afterward, the villagers dug him out again and started to worship him. Later, someone even stole his statue from the temple… and yet, none of this was able to affect the meditating Venerable White.
